IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

READ BEFORE USING!

ELECTRICAL SAFETY

• NOTE

- This appliance must be grounded. In

the event of a malfunction or breakdown,

grounding will reduce the risk of electric

shock by providing a path of least resistance

of electrical current. You will be able to tell if

it is because a non-grounded appliance will

give off an electrical discharge.

• Manufacturer declines all responsibility for

any damage due to non-grounding of

appliance.

• DURING THE GUARANTEE PERIOD ONLY BAUMATIC

SERVICE ENGINEERS OR AN AUTHORISED AGENT

OF BAUMATIC SHOULD CARRY OUT REPAIRS ON

WATER

SOFTENING

FEATURE

THE LIME IN HARD WATER MAKES DEPOSITS FORM ON

DISHES AND UTENSILS. YOUR DISHWASHER HAS A

SPECIAL SOFTENING FEATURE THAT USES SALT

SPECIFICALLY DESIGNED TO ELIMINATE LIME AND

MINERALS FROM THE WATER

WARNING!

ONLY USE DISHWASHER SALT IN YOUR

DISHWASHER.

NOTE:

IF YOU USE 3-IN-1 OR 2-IN-1 TABLETS, BE

SURE NOT TO ADD SALT AND/OR RINSE AID

TO THE APPLIANCE AS THESE TABLET

TYPES ALREADY CONTAIN SALT AND/OR

RINSE AID. ADDING SALT AND RINSE AID

TO YOUR DISHWASHER’S COMPARTMENTS

IN A CYCLE INVOLVING A 3-IN-1 OR 2-IN-1

TABLET WILL RESULT IN OVERDOSING OF

INDIVIDUAL CHEMICALS AND MAY CAUSE

OVERFLOWING OF WATER AND SUDS.

LOADING SALT INTO THE SALT CONTAINER

• REMOVE THE LOWER BASKET & THEN

UNSCREW AND REMOVE THE CAP

FROM THE SALT CONTAINER.

• IF YOU ARE FILLING THE CONTAINER

FOR THE FIRST TIME, FILL WITH

APPROX. 1 LITRE OF WATER.

• PLACE THE END OF THE SUPPLIED

FUNNEL INTO THE HOLE & ADD 1.2 Kg

OF SALT. NOTE

: IT IS NORMAL FOR A

SMALL AMOUNT OF WATER TO COME

OUT OF THE CONTAINER.

Note on chemicals used by the dishwasher

• Your dishwasher is equipped with an adjustable rinse aid and salt container. Using individual detergents,

rinse aid and salt will give the best possible results as this will give the correct dosage of each chemical to

suit your needs. Using Two-in-One or Three-in-One tablets may not give the best results when used in

your appliance, and may not be suitable for the type of water supply in your home, as they contain pre-

determined quantities of salt, rinse aid and detergent and cannot be adjusted to the individual

requirements.

If you are going to use 3-in-1 (or 2-in-1) tablets, we suggest that you contact the manufacturer before use

or if you experience poor results in the wash performance and ask for assistance from them.

BAUMATIC BDW13, BDW14 dishwasher user manual

SETTING THE WATER SOFTENER LEVEL

YOU CAN ADJUST THE AMOUNT OF SALT USED BY THE DISHWASHER TO SOFTEN WATER TO GET

THE BEST WASHING RESULTS, BASED ON THE HARDNESS OF WATER IN YOUR AREA.

1 UNSCREW THE CAP FROM THE SALT

CONTAINER.

2 THERE IS A RING ON THE NECK OF THE

CONTAINER. ROTATE THE RING IN AN

ANTICLOCKWISE DIRECTION FROM THE “-”

SETTING TOWARDS THE “+” SETTING

ACCORDING TO THE HARDNESS OF WATER

IN USE. SEE TABLE BELOW.

NOTE

1. THE SALT CONTAINER MUST BE REFILLED WHEN THE

SALT WARNING LIGHT COMES ON. ALTHOUGH THE

SALT CONTAINER MAY BE FULL, THE INDICATOR LIGHT

MAY NOT GO OUT UNTIL THE SALT HAS DISSOLVED.

2. IF THERE ARE SALT SPILLS, A SOAK PROGRAM CAN

BE RUN TO WASH AWAY SPILLAGE BEFORE USING THE

MACHINE.

3. CLEAR ANY SALT GRANULES AWAY FROM THE

CONTAINER OPENING.

ADJUSTMENTS SHOULD BE MADE ACCORDING TO THE TABLE BELOW:

DETERGENT “How much do I use?”

To OPEN the DETERGENT DISPENSER DOOR, use the CATCH on its LOWER SIDE.

*NOTE: SEE P.13 – WASH CYCLE TABLE for AMOUNT of DETERGENT to use.

NOTE:

• ALWAYS CHECK THE WASH CYCLE TABLE

FOR DOSAGE ADVICE. NEVER OVERFILL

THE DISPENSER.

• DO NOT OVERDOSE TO PREVENT THE

FORMATION OF DEPOSITS (THE WATER

SOFTENING FEATURE ALREADY TAKES CARE

OF THIS!).

THE HARDER YOUR WATER, THE MORE DETERGENT

YOU MAY NEED. ADJUST THE DOSE JUST BY SMALL

AMOUNTS UNTIL YOU FIND THE CORRECT AMOUNT

OF DETERGENT TO USE.

BAUMATIC BDW13, BDW14 dishwasher user manual

RINSE AID

• TO OPEN THE DISPENSER, TURN THE CAP TO

THE ‘OPEN’ (LEFT) ARROW AND LIFT IT OUT.

• POUR THE RINSE AID INTO THE DISPENSER.

BE CAREFUL NOT TO OVERFILL.

• REPLACE CAP BY INSERTING IT ALIGNED WITH

‘OPEN’ ARROW & TURN IT TO THE CLOSED

(RIGHT) ARROW.

• THE RINSE AID IS RELEASED DURING THE

FINAL RINSE TO PREVENT WATER FROM

FORMING DROPLETS ON YOUR DISHES

THAT CAN CAUSE SPOTS AND STREAKS. IT

ALSO IMPROVES DRYING BY ALLOWING

WATER TO FALL OFF THE DISHES.

• YOUR DISHWASHER IS DESIGNED TO USE

LIQUID RINSE AIDS. THE RINSE AID

DISPENSER CAN BE FOUND INSIDE THE

DOOR NEXT TO THE DETERGENT

DISPENSER. TO FILL THE DISPENSER, OPEN

THE CAP AND POUR THE RINSE AID INTO

THE DISPENSER UNTIL THE LEVEL

INDICATOR TURNS COMPLETELY BLACK.

THE DISPENSER HOLDS ABOUT 100ML OF

LIQUID RINSE AID.

• BE CAREFUL NOT TO OVERFILL THE

DISPENSER – THIS COULD CAUSE

FROTHING. WIPE AWAY SPILLS WITH A

DAMP CLOTH. DON’T FORGET TO REPLACE

THE CAP BEFORE YOU CLOSE THE

DISHWASHER DOOR.

NOTE

: IF YOU HAVE SOFT WATER, YOU MAY NOT

NEED RINSE AID FOR IT MAY CAUSE A WHITE FILM

TO DEVELOP ON YOUR DISHES.

ADJUSTING THE RINSE AID DISPENSER

•

As with detergent, the amount of rinse

aid needed for your dishes depends on

the hardness of the water in your area.

Too much rinse aid can result in

foaming and cause cloudiness or

streaks on your dishes. If your water

is very soft, you may not need rinse

aid. You can always dilute the rinse

aid with an equal amount of water.

The rinse aid dispenser has six settings. ALWAYS START WITH THE DISPENSER SET ON “1”. IF SPOTS & POOR

DRYING ARE A PROBLEM, INCREASE THE AMOUNT OF RINSE AID DISPENSED BY REMOVING THE DISPENSER

LID AND ROTATING THE DIAL TO “2”. IF THE DISHES ARE STILL NOT DRYING PROPERLY OR ARE SPOTTED,

ADJUST THE DIAL TO THE NEXT HIGHER NUMBER UNTIL YOUR DISHES ARE SPOT-FREE.

***

NOTE: Please read the notes for detergent use on p. 13.

WHEN TO REFILL THE RINSE

AID DISPENSER - If the rinse aid

warning light (

SEE control panel) is not on, you

can judge the rinse aid level by looking at the

black dot on the rinse aid dispenser. As the

rinse aid level decreases, the black dot shrinks.

Never let the rinse aid get below ¼ full.

FORGET TO ADD A DISH?

A FORGOTTEN DISH CAN BE ADDED AT ANY TIME BEFORE THE DETERGENT

DISPENSER OPENS.

• OPEN THE DOOR A LITTLE TO STOP THE WASHING.

• WAIT ABOUT TEN SECONDS. AFTER THE SPRAY ARMS STOP WORKING,

YOU CAN OPEN THE DOOR COMPLETELY.

• ADD FORGOTTEN DISHES.

• CLOSE THE DOOR, THE DISHWASHER WILL WORK AFTER TEN SECONDS.

NEED TO INTERRUPT A CYCLE?

If an emergency arises, you can stop the machine at any time. Remember to wait

approx. 10 seconds before you open the door fully, as the spray arms continue to turn

after the power has been cut and could spray hot water up at you.

DO NOT PRESS THE ‘ON/OFF’ BUTTON AS THIS WILL RESET THE WHOLE

WASH CYCLE! YOU JUST NEED TO PULL THE DOOR OPEN – DO NOT TOUCH

ANY BUTTONS!

SET THE WRONG CYCLE?

If you set the wrong wash program, you can always cancel the one the machine is

working on by pressing the ‘ON/OFF’ button to switch your dishwasher off, waiting a

few seconds before opening the door to change the cycle (see p.12 to recap on how to

start a washing cycle). Don’t forget to add detergent for the new cycle. Your

dishwasher will automatically drain any water away and begin the new cycle.

TAKE CARE WHEN OPENING THE DOOR DURING

WASHING. THE HOT WATER IN THERE MAY SCALD YOU IF YOU OPEN

THE DOOR TOO QUICKLY!

BAUMATIC BDW13, BDW14 dishwasher user manual

AT THE END OF THE WASH CYCLE

WHEN YOUR DISHWASHER’S WASHING CYCLE HAS FINISHED:

• THE ALARM WILL SOUND FOR EIGHT SECONDS.

• OPEN THE DOOR OF YOUR DISHWASHER & SWITCH YOUR

DISHWASHER OFF USING THE ‘ON/OFF’ KEY.

• WAIT A FEW MINUTES BEFORE UNLOADING THE

DISHWASHER TO AVOID HANDLING THE DISHES AND

UTENSILS WHILE THEY ARE STILL HOT AND MORE

SUSCEPTIBLE TO BREAKAGE.

• THEY WILL ALSO DRY BETTER IF YOU LEAVE THEM IN FOR

A WHILE.

NOTE: THESE MODELS FEATURE BUILT-IN RESIDUAL DRYING.

BAUMATIC BDW13, BDW14 dishwasher user manual

FILTERING SYSTEM

FOR YOUR CONVENIENCE, WE HAVE PLACED THE FILTERING SYSTEM WITHIN EASY REACH INSIDE THE

TUB. THE FILTER REMOVES BITS OF FOOD TRAPPED IN THE FILTER FROM THE WASH WATER SO IT CAN BE

RECIRCULATED DURING THE CYCLE. THERE ARE THREE PARTS TO THE FILTERING SYSTEM: 1) The Main Filter,

2) The Coarse Filter & 3) The Fine Filter.

1 MAIN FILTER

Food and soil particles trapped by this filter are

pulverized by a special jet on the lower spray arm and

washed down the drain.

2 COARSE FILTER

Larger items, such as pieces of bone or glass that could

clog the drain are trapped in the coarse filter. To

remove an item caught in this filter, gently squeeze

the tabs on top of this filter and lift it out.

3 FINE FILTER

This filter holds soil and food residue in the sump area

and prevents it from being re-deposited on the dishes

during a cycle.

Caring for your Dishwasher

CLEANING THE OUTSIDE SURFACES OF YOUR APPLIANCE

• TO CLEAN THE EXTERIOR OF YOUR DISHWASHER (INCLUDING THE CONTROL PANEL), USE A LIGHTLY

DAMPENED CLOTH THEN DRY THOROUGHLY.

NEVER USE SHARP OBJECTS, SCOURING PADS OR

HARSH CLEANERS ON ANY PART OF THE APPLIANCE. SOME PAPER TOWELS CAN SCRATCH.

• TO CLEAN THE EDGE AROUND THE DOOR,

ONLY EVER USE A SOFT WARM, DAMP RAG.

DO NOT USE A SPRAY CLEANER HERE OR

WHEN CLEANING THE DOOR PANEL AS THIS

MAY HARM THE DOOR LOCK AND

ELECTRICAL PARTS.

CLEANING THE SPRAY ARMS

THE SPRAY ARMS NEED REGULAR CLEANING AS HARD WATER RESIDUES WILL CLOG THEIR

JETS & BEARINGS. TO REMOVE THE SPRAY ARM, SCREW OFF THE NUT TO TAKE OUT THE

WASHER ON TOP OF THE SPRAY ARM AND REMOVE THE ARM. WASH THE ARMS IN SOAPY

WARM WATER & USE A SOFT BRUSH TO CLEAN THE JETS. REPLACE THE SPRAY ARM AFTER

RINSING IT THOROUGHLY.

BAUMATIC BDW13, BDW14 dishwasher user manual

CLEANING THE FILTERS

• THE FILTER ASSEMBLY MUST BE KEPT CLEAN FOR BEST PERFORMANCE. You should remove the

larger bits of food trapped in the filter after each wash cycle by rinsing the semicircular filter and

cup under running water. To remove the filter assembly, pull up on the cup handle.

• The entire filter assembly should be cleaned at least once a month.

• To clear the coarse filter and the fine filter, use a cleaning brush. Then, reassemble the filter parts

as shown in the figure above and reinsert the entire assembly in the dishwasher in its seat & press

downward to secure it.

• Improper replacement of the filter may impair appliance performance and damage dishes and

utensils.

• Warning - never

run the dishwasher without the filters

in place!

• Warning - Before cleaning the inner cavity of the appliance

always allow 30 minutes for the Element to cool down to

avoid injury!

BAUMATIC BDW13, BDW14 dishwasher user manual

HOW TO KEEP YOUR DISHWASHER IN SHAPE

AFTER EVERY WASH, leave the door slightly ajar so that moisture and odours are not trapped

inside.

REMOVE THE PLUG before cleaning or performing maintenance. Never run the risk of electric

shocks.

DO NOT USE SOLVENTS OR ABRASIVE CLEANING AGENTS to clean the exterior and the rubber

parts of the dishwasher. Only use a cloth and warm soapy water. To remove spots or stains

from the surface of the interior, use a cloth dampened with water and a little white vinegar,

or a cleaning product made specifically for dishwashers.

WHEN YOU GO ON HOLIDAY, run a wash cycle with the dishwasher empty. Then unplug it, turn

off the water supply and leave the door slightly ajar to prevent odours and mould from

developing.

MOVING THE APPLIANCE is possible but KEEP IT UPRIGHT.

SEALS can trap food, which in turn will cause odours. Periodic cleaning with a damp cloth or

sponge will prevent this from becoming a problem.

PROTECTING YOUR DISHWASHER AGAINST FREEZING

If your dishwasher is left in an unheated place during the winter, ask a

service technician to:

Cut off electrical power to the dishwasher. Remove fuses or trip circuit

breaker.

2) Turn off the water supply and disconnect the water inlet pipe from the water

valve & discharge hoses.

3) Drain water from the inlet pipe and water valve (Use a pan to catch the

water).

4) Reconnect the water inlet pipe to the water valve.

5) Remove the plastic sump cover in the tub bottom and use a sponge to soak

up water in the rubber boot.
